    It became a common refrain from some of the Trump supporters and even some of the "Anti-Trump" right wingers that what happened on January 6 wasn't an insurrection. Today, a court officially ruled that it was an insurrection.

    New Mexico county commissioner and Cowboys for Trump founder removed from elected office for role in US Capitol riot | CNN Politics

    I personally love the fact that his defense, as a person who stormed the Capitol under the argument that you can't trust the elections, is that he won an election.

    Wait, they didn’t see it as a peaceful protest of country loving patriots that were there for a tour? I’m simply shocked!

    Yeah, but was he wearing buffalo horns ? That’s what made Jan 6 so scary in my view.

    Nah, he dressed up like he was a cowboy while he attempted to overthrow the US government.

    I can’t believe the Capitol Police didn’t call for a straight jacket.

    They were too busy taking selfies with the hooligans. They even idly stood by while one of them placed feet on Pelosi’s desk and another made off with a lectern.

    Should be a lot more judges following suit and throwing out other insurrectionists but this is a good start

    Voter fraud on a national scale is an insurrection... it's high treason.

    It's the dem propaganda of the day. Even the FBI said months after 1/6 that there was only one-off scant evidence that there was a planned insurrection.

    If somebody takes this to higher court, it will be overturned. Some judge lacky in New Mexico can't declare an insurrection. On top of that, this guy didn't go inside the capitol building.

    Anybody ok with this is a fascist.

    They need to be de-funded, and taken out of power...

    If judges can't declare something an insurrection, who can, specifically? He was given proper due process, and he lost. What system would you prefer?

    BTW, multiple people have now been charged with seditious conspiracy, so it seems like your anonymous report may not have been correct at the time or at least isn't correct currently.

    I can support categorizing voter fraud on a national scale as an attack on our country. What evidence do you have of voter fraud on a national scale?

    Playing dumb I see... I'm done posting all the proof out there. Google is your friend, and we've proven national voter fraud over and over again and again. So, I will no longer play your childish games.

    But here is your messiah telling the truth about it.

    You have "proven" it, huh? Can you give me a citation of a court case in which it was proven that national voter fraud occurred?

    Okay, can you provide the citations to these cases in which the court has found that "every swing state" had large scale voter fraud?
